Explanation / Answer

9) Here n = 1517

r = k = 3

r is no of rows while k is no of columns

Cramer's =sqrt( X2/ n / min(r-1,k-1) ) = sqrt( 53.168 / (1517*2)) = 0.132

Hence, C is the correct answer

2) Since Cramer's V value is 0.132 which is small and closer to 0, the degree of association is weak.
